Paisaje Protegido Pino Santo
Paisaje Protegido Pino Santo
Gran Canaria
Este lugar se encuentra entre los municipios de Las Palmas, Santa Brígida, Teror y San Mateo. Se sitúa en las medianías de la vertiente norte de la Isla, atravesada por importantes barrancos como los del Acebuchal y Guiniguada. En su cauce es donde se encuentran los materiales más antiguos, y en la caldera de Pino Santo, los más recientes.
Es un espacio de carácter rural y de gran belleza paisajística que mezcla naturaleza, zonas tradicionales cultivadas y sectores habitados de interés cultural, como La Galga, Espartero y El Corcovado.
Su nombre proviene de la leyenda del Pino Santo de Teror, que cuenta que la Virgen del Pino fue hallada entre las ramas de este enorme árbol, ya derruido, que creció junto a la capilla.
Los acebuchales también encuentran una buena representación en algunos sectores del espacio protegido. Contiene además algunos elementos singulares como el cono del Monte Lentiscal, enclavado en el histórico Barranco de Guiniguada. También destaca el Jardín botánico Viera y Clavijo, donde se cultiva gran cantidad de flora canaria.
